Rogers Communications beats Q2 estimates with $5.72B in revenue

Rogers Communications Inc. reported second-quarter revenue of $5.72 billion, edging past the $5.718 billion consensus estimate by about $2.3 million.

"We delivered solid operational results in the quarter, driven by continued demand for our wireless and wireline services," CEO Tony Staffieri said.

Adjusted earnings per share came in at $1.17, compared with the $1.16 analyst estimate. The beat was driven by higher wireless service revenue and disciplined cost management across the business.

The results come as Rogers continues to integrate its acquisition of Shaw Communications, which closed in 2023. The company has been investing in its network infrastructure to expand 5G coverage and compete with BCE Inc. and Telus Corp. in the Canadian telecommunications market. Rogers did not disclose updated guidance for the full fiscal year.

The modest beat signals that Rogers is maintaining steady execution amid a competitive telecom environment. Investors will watch the company's next quarterly report for updates on subscriber growth and margin trends.
